Endless City Legacy
Endless City Legacy replaces the normal Minecraft world with an unending, expansive city that generates as the player travels through it.
What it does
The mod is a more original version of the Endless City project, aiming to bring back the feel of the early releases that began as a simple mod. Its central idea is a city that keeps generating in every direction, so getting wood becomes a real challenge, with the rare resources spread through the city as valuables. Players can move across the city and teleport away from it, and the city generates over existing parts of the world as players travel.
Chunks that are no longer needed are purged automatically, and the generation uses smarter chunk borders, so the many chunk borders of a large city do not overwhelm the pack. The mod also offers a modern-textured take that reduces some of the older game bugs. Endless City Legacy is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt on 1.20, 1.20.1, 1.21, 1.21.1, 1.21.2, 1.21.3 and 1.21.4, and is in the data pack category for server platforms. The server needs it, while clients may add it. The code is not open source; the project is released under All rights reserved.
Key features
Unending generated city
The city keeps generating outward as players explore, with no fixed edge to the map.
Automatic chunk purging
Chunks that are no longer in use are removed on their own, which keeps the world from growing without limit.
Generation over existing terrain
The city can be built over parts of the world that already exist, not only into fresh territory.
Valuables in the city
Rare resources are placed through the generated city, so players gather them from the city itself.
